Daniel A. Woolverton - A Rapist you will and SHOULD not forget

Image
Daniel A. Woolverton The picture above is of a West Point graduate (Class of 1997) who went on to have a military career that most men at one time were little boys dreaming about as they played with their G.I. Joe's and Army Men. A sweet face, I am sure as a mother, his own mother worried about his safety every waking moment while he was enlisted.   This is him - that same once good looking - waiting to to take on the world, young man. Life has taken a toll, that is obvious - at first glance you might think that the horrors his eyes seen as a former JAG officer eventually led him down the path of self medication and drug abuse. His soul appears to be lost behind those eyes - Truth is, after reading and taking what I have learned since receiving an email today to his story- He never had a soul - at least one with a conscience to begin with.  The headline in the email asking to me to consider telling this story on this blog read: NEWS:  Disbarred US Arm

It is absolutely amazing to me the stories I have heard and bills I have personally witnessed since starting down this road just three weeks ago. A road that I had no clue what was happening out there because, as I have said before, I am not a propane consumer. I am however, like many in our society, one who lives paycheck to paycheck and understands the value of every penny earned, and every penny which needs to be spent just to live and survive in hopes to make it out of the darkness of a weak economy and shrinking finances. I have concentrated my efforts on one corporation, Inergy LP (a.k.a   MANY OTHER NAMES ) mainly because they are right here, in my community, a company known by locals at Tru Gas.  Rather than  recalling everything I have written here on my personal blog, or as a reporter for The Messenger of Juneau County  in the articles I have written - I suggest if you want the back story to this post you look at the last three posts to this blog.
